Guy George, from Cleveland, Ohio (but now from the Port Orange, FL area,) is a rhythmic, melodic hammered dulcimer
player with a definite jazz influence to his playing style. Guy comes from a background in jazz and performance on
the saxophone, having studied at Berklee College of Music in Boston; honing his skills playing with many jazz
influenced musicians in the Boston and New York area. He had settled outside Cleveland, Ohio but just recently has made
Florida his home and presently plays hammered dulcimer, tenor, alto and soprano saxophones, flute, pennywhistle,
steel drum, and keyboard. He has made his name in the dulcimer world as a performer, instructor, author/publisher
and recording artist.

He tours throughout the United States and Canada performing and recording and teaching workshops on the hammered
dulcimer, steel drums, and penny whistle. His teaching style is relaxed and fun, as he teaches tunes of many different
genres and styles. In addition, he incorporates methods for more advanced practicing and playing techniques while
simultaneously entertaining his students.

Guy has authored 13 books arranged for hammered dulcimer, steel drum, pennywhistle, and other instruments, which are
distributed around the world through Gesani Publications, a company he and his wife, Sharrie, own and operate.

Sharrie George teaches and plays guitar, ukulele, and mountain dulcimer with her husband, Guy. She studied
music at the College of Charleston in S.C. She and Guy teach and play music together for weddings, private parties
and events, and at churches and festivals around the U.S.

Sharrie has taught guitar and ukulele at festivals such as Key West Dulcimer Festival, Kentucky Music Week,
Common Ground on the Hill in Maryland, Memphis Dulcimer Gathering, WinterCreek Family Reunion in Oklahoma, and
John C. Campbell Folk School in Brasstown, N.C., as well as co-hosting the Florida Gulf Coast Dulcimer Retreat with
